I got one of those $99 revue's and it's a nice piece of hardware.
Unfortunantly, the software is far too buggy and incomplete.
The thing refuses to play 99% of my video media and it requires DLNA and cannot see network drives unless they are being "served".
But is able to play from a USB stick/HDD so I'm not sure why it requires the DLNA server.
The included browser is ok, but buggy. It should be FULL CHROME, but it is not. There are no bookmarks, ect.

I really like this thing but it is seriously hindered by software issues.
So, Where's my update, Logitech???

Oh, Im sorry... Did the middle of my sentence interrupt the beginning of yours?
